National Trails Day Celebration - Backpacking Basics and Hike

Make the most of your weekends and go backpacking! Join us and learn the skills and gear needed to keep you happy and safe on the trail. You are invited to hike the Big Bluff Trail, with park staff following the backpacking program.

To ensure you enjoy your state park experience, be aware of the natural world. There
are some areas which are potentially hazardous to all visitors. Since it is impractical
to post signs at all danger points, use caution when approaching such areas as cliffs,
caves, heavily wooded areas, swamps, streams, and lakes. Adults are responsible
for children in their care. If unsure about possible hazards, check at the visitor
center.
